[V8] Audi R10 and Le Mans.

Well all, I just got back last night from my bi-annual trip over to the 24 
Hours of Le Mans and to spend a week in and around Paris.  From a first hand 
perspective, I have to say the R10's were absolutely incredible machines to 
watch.  Whisper quiet around the track, and their acceleration power out of 
the turns was most impressive.  The ACO announced while I was there 
(actually during the race) that there were going to be new regulations on 
Diesel powered vehicles next year thanks to Audi's incredible achievements 
(go figure).

Peugeot has also announced that they will be fielding a P1 diesel powered 
prototype next year.

Got to see the R10 up close during the Pit walk on Friday night and to see 
it up close was equally as impressive as watching it tearing up the track 
for the 21 hours that I was able to stay up.

If anyone has any questions, I'll be glad to answer them.
